Surely with it being quite nip-and-tuck and with so few games left it will go right down to the last game?

… ignore the morons on Bru and keep doing what you’re doing
Ignore the morons on Bru and you probably wouldn’t have a Club.

Gareth’s videos are a bit boring, but I really appreciate that he is doing them and has the passion to do them. No-one can fault that.
In general with the Iron Hour crew it seems to me that there’s very little self-awareness. Not all of them, it has to be said, but certainly a couple of them. Particularly over last night’s ‘forgive Gareth’ campaign thread on the Facebook group. Double standards, lack of accountability.

Agree with the OP, even with an army of Stu Maw clones basic fundraising simply isnt gonna be enough and hopefully the club and fans can come up with a solution…
It’s going to require something like a monthly / annual / five year / ten year / lifelong membership scheme and subscription model. It needs to be properly set-up, properly committed to. I personally would sign up to something to put more money in, in this way. I’m not sure I’d expect much more in return than just knowing I was making a difference, after the last few turbulent years and the recent increased awareness of how fragile things are. Other members will want something more for their ‘subs’ and so that is an area where the Club and organised fan groups could engage over ideas.
I listened to the FC100000 guy’s BBC Humberside interview again and, in the cold light of day, to be completely fair to him he made some good points about football clubs in general. However, there is no clear proof of concept for his particular ‘new improved version’ business model. I thought as much as he showed an understanding of football clubs as businesses he showed a clear lack of understanding of football fans.

He certainly went in a blaze of glory then. If the club had let him have some burger vans outside on community day, we’d all still be non the wiser ….
We’d know on Thursday with Gareth’s face all over it.

The Club statement is a carefully worded arse-covering exercise.

One or two characters on social media turned up their abuse to Zanetti-on-the-mic volume.

Must have missed it, what’s his link to this FC100 fiasco?
He fronted up the Club’s video announcing the FC100000 deal (filmed last week).

Now that’s piss poor Michelle and shows how naive she is, just one press of a button on Google would have shown what a shit show they’d done before.
As ever with official statements of any kind from anyone or anywhere, you have to realise that they are political moves and do not necessarily reflect the nuances or (sometimes) the actual truth of events. They are the convenient account of events, or the convenient position to take to be able to move things forward under your own narrative steam. Statements are often designed to be shields (or, indeed, swords).
